| Obverse description | At center, the face value '10' is prominently displayed within an artistic Hebrew inscription rendered in stylized letters designed to evoke flames rising within a whirlwind, referencing the biblical passage of Elijah's ascent. The State Emblem of Israel — a menorah flanked by olive branches — appears at top center. The denomination '10 שקלים חדשים / NEW SHEQALIM' is inscribed in the field, with the name 'ISRAEL / ישראל / إسرائيل' in Latin, Hebrew, and Arabic scripts. A bilingual legend in English and Arabic citing 2 Kings 2:11 encircles the border, with the Hebrew equivalent rendered in the flame-like artistic lettering; the Hebrew year תשע״ב and the Mint of Finland mintmark appear in the lower field. |
